Git Directory Management

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when creating new directories in a git repository, especially when:

  • Setting up project structure
  • Creating plugin/package directories
  • Organizing code into new folders
  • Adding configuration directories

Core Principle

Never create .gitkeep files in directories you're about to populate with tracked files.

.gitkeep is ONLY for keeping truly empty directories in version control.
